We visit your home and give you room-by-room action items, estimated costs and recommended trades-a great option for DIY customers or folks who are at the beginning of their design journey. At the Design in a Day consult, we craft a clear design vision, review specific design goals and provide professional design expertise, tips and tricks and creative brainstorming for any puzzling design dilemma.
The design process can be complicated and has lots of moving parts. So we use this project management planning process to ensure that your project goes smoothly from beginning to end!

Our experience with Julie and her talented design team in our recent kitchen remodel was absolutely wonderful! Julie took the time initially to understand our tastes and preferences, then offered a selection of potential design solutions. She earnestly listened and incorporated what was important to us, making adjustments as needed. Amanda provided fabulous computerized images that brought our ideas to life. During the process, Amanda also offered creative ideas, many of which we were happy to utilize. Julie made it easy for us, meeting us at our house at our convenience, and brought product samples

Julie Risman helped us with the interior design selections for our new home. From the beginning, it was clear that Julie had wonderful taste, design sense and organizational skills--all refined by years of experience. She gets to know her clients and makes it a point to listen and understand their vision. She then works diligently to achieve that vision, always working with the highest level of professionalism.
One of the many tools Julie used to stay organized and on top of our project was a "digital presentation board," which housed all of our selections, images and drawings and allowed for

I am a custom home builder who has had the privilege to work with Julie Risman of The Inside Story Design on a beautiful custom home this past year. Julie did an amazing job on all the selections and helped make our clients home turn out better than they even dreamed. Julie was great to work with and always available when needed. I would highly recommend The Inside Story Design for any design needs you may have and look forward to working with them some more in the future.
